Description freggy1 2007-08-08 21:21:34 UTC
Often I want to search for a term which contains a dot. When I try to do this by typing the search term in Epiphany's URL bar, it will think it's an URL, and will fail to resolve it. It will then show a page, proposing to show the Google Cache of Internet Archive Version, which is of course not what I want. It should show a third link, proposing to search it in the default search engine.

Example to trigger this problem: type foo.test in the URL bar.
